Scale
- 4 corn on the cob
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 2 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley or cilantro
Instructions
- Prepare the grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Prepare the corn: Peel back the husks of the corn without removing them. Remove the silk from the corn and pull the husks back up.
- Season the corn: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, Cajun seasoning, lime juice, salt, and herbs. Brush the mixture onto the corn.
- Grill the corn: Place the corn on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and slightly charred.
- Serve: Remove the corn from the grill, sprinkle with additional seasoning if desired, and serve hot.
Notes
- You can adjust the level of spiciness by adding more or less Cajun seasoning.
- For a smokier flavor, try grilling the corn directly on the grill without the husks.
